We did it because it is legal (Just, please, don't break the story, NYT.)
We did it because FISA is too slow (And never mind that 72 hour retroactive thang.)
We only did it with international calls (Except, oops, when we accidentally wiretapped domestic calls. I wonder if warrants would have helped prevent these "accidents"?).
Congress gave us the power to do it when they authorized Bush to use force after 9/11 (but we didn't ask congress for this specific power because we were told they wouldn't give it to us.)
Clinton did it too! (AND he likes BJs!!!!!!!!)
9/11! (9/11!)
